Assurances which nay now be opened will rateably participate, agreeably to the Laws of the Society, in the additions to be declared at the ensuing Periodical Investigation. The THIRD PERIODICAL INVESTIGATION takes place at 31st December instant, when ADDITIONS by way of BONUS will be DECLARED to ALL ASSURANCES OPENED PRE VIOUS TO THAT DATE, in terms of, and under the Limita tions contained in the Articles of Constitution and Laws of the Society. These additions, when declared, are added to and incorporated with the original Assurances, and all future additions, whether re trospectively or prospectively, are computed, not on the original, but on the accumulated amount of the Assurance. As it is pro balsle that on this, as on former similar occasions, the desire to par ticipate in these benefits will very largely increase the number of proposals for Assurance which will be made to the Society previous to the closing of the books for the current year, it will greatly fa cilitate the d uties of the officers of the Society, and at the various Brandies throughout the country, that parties intending to propose Assurance do se with as little delay as possible, in order to prevent tie inconvenience which the delaying of them till the latest possible moment at which they can be received or carried through, con sistently with the Society's regulations, has given rise to en former occasions.

It is scarcely possible that the debate on the address, with which the public sittings of the Chamber will commence, can be opened beforo the 26th or 27th. The Memorial Bordelais states that a courier of the French Embassy passed through Bordeaux on Sunday last, on his way to Madrid, with the reply of the French Cabinet to the diplomatic communication despatched by the Duke de Frias by estafette on the 1 lth ult., demand ing an intervention. "It is believed," says this paper, " that the French Government entertains no disposition to give a greater degree of extension to the measures already adopted in conformity with the Quadruple Treaty, and that consequently the application made by Spain is refused." The brig,kriable Jenny, of Nantes, bound homewards from St. Domingo, with a cargo of colonial produce, was driven on shore at Cante, on the coast of Brittany, on the night of the 27t1, ult., and went to pieces next morning. Out of seven passengers and eleven men, six of. the crew only were saved. Among the passengers drowned was the widow of a French medical man at St. Domingo, murdered during the late disturbances in the island. who was re 'turning to France with a little child. This unhappy woman remained on the deck of the vessel with the infant in her arms, crying for assistance from ten at night, when the ship struck, till three in the morning, when it sunk ; but it was impossible to give her any assistance.

COPY OF COMMERCIAL TREATY BETWEEN ENGLAND AND THE OTTOMAN PORTE, CONCLUDED AUGUST 16, 1638. CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 17.—The ratifications of the new commercial treaty between England and the Ottoman Porte having been yesterday exchanged in due form by Lord Ponsonby and the Turkish Plenipotentiaries at the Kiosk of Kalendar, on the Bosphorus, I am now enabled to forward you a verbatim copy of it. The Dublin Evening Post of Thursday states that his Excellency the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland was to leave Kingston for England on the morrow (Friday.) O'CONNELL ENTERTAINMENTS.-Mr. O'Connell dined last Monday with the Rev. Dr. Keating, who had a large party to meet the Hon. Gentleman, amongst whom were the county Members. On Tuesday his Lordship had a public breakfast, at which were the principal inhabitants, and Mr. O'Connell received an address from the trades (presented by the Chairman) adopted at a very numerous meeting. In his reply he dwelt particularly on the evil results to which trade in general was exposed by the baneful effects of combination. Mr. O'Connell, accompanied by his Lordship, then proceeded to a large platform, which was erected on the old Abbey grounds. No other place could contain the vast multitude, which congregated to attend a meeting for the further enrolment of Precursors, and to petition for Vote by Ballot, extinction of Tithes, and Cor porate Reform. The Hon. Gentleman was accompanied by the thousands who were present, several miles along the road. To a question put this day to the Liberator by Mr. Whitey, a Precursor, Mr. O'Connell said that no pur chaser at tithe sales should or ought to be admitted into the society of Precursors. ' This answer was in accordance with the sixth rule of the Society. On the morning of the 4th inst. Mr. O'Connell was en tertained at a public breakfast in Enniscorthy. An a ddress to Mr. O'Connell was read by Mr. Doyle. Our report states that " when Mr. Doyle had concluded, Mr. O'Connell intimated that he would address the people on reaching the town. The procession then proc ee d e d, and nothing coal(' present a more imposing aspect. There were at least 9.0,000 persons present." The Hon. and Learned Gentleman spoke at some length, anal was, of course, loudly cheered during his speech. In the evening there was a grand dinner, to which nearly :G. After the u sua l toasts M r.

None of the passengers were injured, and another coach having been procured, resumed their journey. CoRN-LAWS.—I n Mr. Wallace's recent address to his constituents he said he was sorry that the people showed such an apathy on this important. question last year, and, as statistics were better for conveying information, he would give some extracts from Parliamentary documents that he considered would be of importance at the present time, wh en t h e pr i ce of food for man was so high, and likely to continue so for nioAths to come. In favour of a repeal of the Corn-laws there were only fifty-nine petitions ; and when the question of allowing bonded grain to be ground was proposed, and as that would affect the Corn laws, he was ashamed to say that only seventeen petitions were presented in favour of it, while the landed interest sent in seventy-nine against it. These statistics show the necessity of the people coming forward and petitioning for a repeal of these laws." THE LATE ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION.— Desire Rouselle the man charged with having attempted to assassinate the Duke of Normandy, was yesterday brought up at Union Hall, and discharged from custody, the " Duke" declining to prosecute. A correspondence of some length relative to the affair was laid before the Ma. gistrates, but did not throw any light upon the transaction, further than that it showed that certain parties had accused the " Duke" of shooting himself for the purpose of crea ting a sensation in this country and in France. The " Duke" returned his thanks to the Magistrates in a written communication for the attention they had given to the case, and entered into some details relative to the per secution which he states he has suffered from his enemies in France. GERARD'S HALL.—A highly respectable party of gentlemen, nearly 200 in number, dined together at this celebrated house of good fare on Wednesday, to commemo rate the opening of the establishment. Mr. Sheriff Wood exertedpFesie th d,a e n i c r l the party was as happy as gentlemanly urba nity, festive abu n d ance , harmony, and humour could make them. Messrs. B roa dhurst, Hornca'tle, and Hudson greatly powers in the course of the evening, " IMPORT TRADE, " Art 1. All articles being the growth, produce, or manufacture of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, and its dependencies, and all merchandise of what soever description embarked in British vessels, and being the property of British subjects, or being brought overland from other countries by the same, shall be admitted as heretofore into all parts of the Ottoman dominions, without exception, on the payment of 3 per cent. duty, calculated upon the value of such articles. And in lieu of all other and interior duties, whether levied on the pur chaser or the seller, to which these articles are at pre sent subject, it is agreed that the importer, after receiv ing his goods, shall pay, if he sells them at the place of reception, or if he sends them thence to be sold elsewhere, in the interior of the Turkish Empire, one fixed duty of 2 per cent., after which such goods may be sold and re-sold in the interior, or exported without any further duty being levied or demanded on them. But all goods that have paid the 3 per cent. import duty at one port, shall be sent to another free of any further duty ; and it is only when sold there or transmitted thence into the interior, that the second duty shall be paid. It is always understood that her Majesty's Government do not pretend, either by this article or any other in the present treaty, to stipulate for more than the plain and fair construction of the terms em ployed, nor to preclude in any manner the Ottoman Go vernment from the exercise of its rights of internal admi nistration where the exercise of those rights does not evi dently infringe upon the privileges recorded by ancient treaties, or the present treaty, to British merchandise or British subjects. 6' Art. 2. All foreign goods hi ought to Turkey from other countries shall be freely purchased and traded in, in any manner, by the subjects of her Britannic Majesty, or the agents of the same, at any place in the Ottoman dominions ; and if such foreign goods shall have paid no other duty than the duty paid on importation, then the British subject or his agent shall be able to purchase such foreign goods on paying the extra duty of 2 per cent., which he will h ave to pay on the sale of hi s own i mporte d goods, or on their transmission for sale into the interior, and after such foreign goods shall be resold in the interior, or exported without further duty; or should such foreign goods have already paid the amount of 2 per cent. (i.e., the import and interior duty), then they shall be purchased by the British subject or his agent, and afterwards resold or ex ported without being ever submitted to any further duty. " Art. 3. No charge whatever shall be made on Britsh goods (such being the growth, produce, or manufacture of the United Kingdom and its dependencies, or the growth, produce, or manufacture of any foreign country and charged in British vessels and belonging to British subjects) passing through the straits of the Dardanelles, of the Bosphorus, and of the Black Sea, whether such goods shall pass through those straits in the ships that brought them, or are transhipped in those straits, or destined to be sold else where, or landed with a view to their being transferred to other vessels, and to proceed on their voyage within a rea sonable time. All merchandise imported into Turkey for the purpose of being transmitted to other countries, or which, remaining in the hands of the importer, shall be transmitted by him for sale to other countries, shall only pay the duty of 3 per cent. paid on importation, and no other duty whatever. "INTERNAL TRADE AND TURKEY PRODUCE. " Art. 1. All rights, privileges, and immunities which have been conferred on the subjects or ships of Great Bri tain by existing capitulations and treaties are confirmed now and for ever, except in as far as they may be now spe cifically altered by the present convention ; and it is more over expressly stipulated, that all rights, privileges, and im munities which the Sublime Porte now grant or may here after grant to the ships and subjects of any other foreign power, or which it may suffer the ships or subjects of any other foreign power to exercise and enjoy, shall be equally granted to and exercised and enjoyed by the subjects and ships of Great Britain. " Art. 2. The subjects of ber Britannic Majesty, or their agents, shall be permitted to purchase at all places in the Ottoman dominions, whether for the purpose of internal trade or export, all articles, without any exception what ever, being the produce, growth, or manufacture of the said dominions ; and the Sublime Porte formally engages to abolish all monopolies of agricultural produce, or of any other articles whatever, as well as all permits from local governors, either for the purchase of any article, or for its removal from one place to another when purchased ; and any attempt to compel the subjects of her Britannic Ma jesty to receive such permits from the local governors shall he considered as en infraction of the treaty, and the Sub. lime Porte shall immediately punish with severity any vizir or other officer who shall have been guilty of such miscon duct, and render full justice to British subjects for all in juries and losses which they may duly prove themselves to have suffered. " Art. 3. If any article of Turkish produce, growth, or manufacture be purchased by the British merchant or his agents for the purpose of selling the same for the internal consumption of Turkey, the British merchant shall pay at the purchase and sale of such article, or in any manner of trade therein, the same duties that are paid in similar cir cumstances by the most favoured classes of Turkish sub jects engaged in the internal trade of Turkey, whether Musselmans or Rayalis. " Art. 4. If any article of Turkish produce, growth, or manufacture be purchased for exportation, the same shall be conveyed by the British merchant or his agent, free of any kind of charge or duty whatever, to a convenient place of shipment, on its entry into which it shall be liable to one fixed duty of nine per cent., ad valorem, in lieu of all other internal duties. Subsequently, on exportation, the duty of three per cent. established and existing at present shall be paid. But all articles bought in the shipping port for ex portation, and which have already paid the interior duty on entering into the same, will only pay the three per cent. export duty. " Art. 5. The regulations under which firmans are issued to British merchant vessels for passing the Dardanelles and the Bosphorus shall be so framed as to occasion the vessels the least possible delay. " Art. 6. It is agreed by the Turkish Government that the regulati ons establiAled by th e present con vention shall . be general th roug h out the Turkish empire, whether Turkey i n E urope or Turkey in Asia, in Egypt, otherm African p ossess i ons belonging to the Sublime Porte, de , and shall be app li ca b le to all the subjects, whatever their - scription, of th e Ot toman d om i n i ons ; an d the Turkish 8. d.

They are so fond of fine names, these fellows. That comes of not speaking English !" Richard Bentley, New Burlington-street, Publisher in Ordinary to Her Majesty. Government also agrees not to object to other powers set. ding their trade upon the basis of the present convention. " Art. 7. It having been the custom of Great Britain and the Sublime Porte, with a view to prevent all difficul ties in estimating the value of articles imported into the Turkish dominions, to appoint, at intervals of fourteen years, a commission of men acquainted with the traffic of both countries, who have fixed by a tariff the sum of money, in the coin of the Grand Seignior, which should be fixed as duty on each article ; and the term of 14 years • during which the last adjustment of the said tariff was to remain in force having expired, the high contracting parties have agreed to name conjointly a fresh Commis ' "ion, to fix and determine the amount in money which is to be paid by British subjects, as the duty of 3 per cent. upon the value of all commodities imported and exported by them ; and the said Commission shall establish an equitable arrangement for estimating the interior duty which by the present convention is fixed and established on Turkey goods to be exported, and shall also determine on the place of shipment where it may be most convenient such duty shall be levied. The new tariff thus established to be in force for seven years after it has been fixed ; at the end of which term it shall be in the power of either of the parties to de mend a revision of that tariff ; but if no such demand be made on either side within the six months after the end of the first seven years, that the tariff shall remain in force for seven more, reckoned from the end of the preceding seven years, and so it shall be at the end of each succeeding period of seven years. " Art. 8. The present convention shall be ratified and the ratifications exchanged at Constantinople within the space of four months. " In witness whereof, the respective Plenipotentiaries have signed the same and affixed their seals thereto." This treaty, I think, speaks too loudly for itself to re quire any remark or panegyric from me ; it is, of itself, a masterpiece of political composition, and cannot fail to be a death-blow to the designs and influence of Russia. Every clause, and, in fact, every line of it is filled with important results, which it must of necessity produce, though which, consequent and advantageous as they both appear and will prove to be, have still required years of persuasion, and conviction upon -conviction, to induce the Turks to adopt measures to obtain them, and of which, though they now have them before their eyes, by having adopted those mea sures, they still seem to doubt the reality, and to think they have been urged on them for some sinister purpose. This treaty is complete ; and even for such clauses to which exceptions might be made, as being liable to mis construction, ample notes have been added, explaining the extent which their meaning implies ; and too much credit cannot be given to his Lordship for carrying through and co►npleting so arduous a task. All now that remains to be done is, the adjustment of the export tariff (that for im port, as I informed you some time since, is already finished) ; and our Commissioners, in unison with those of the French Government (who, having received instructions from their Ambassador to that effect, met ours for the first time on Friday last, and again yesterday) being now occupied in discussing and arranging this matter, it is expected it will be completed before the end of the year. The treaty comes in force in March next. The ratifications, in con formity with the Turkish custom, were contained in the most elegantly-embroidered bags. The Plenipotentiaries, on the part of the Turks, were Nourri Effendi and Mus tapha Kani Effendi. The grand fast and holiday of the Turks of the mcnth Rhamazan, during which period public business of every kind gives way to fasting, sleeping, and feasting, the two former by day and the latter by night, commences on Monday next. Political news, therefore, it may be expected, will now be extremely scarce for some time to come. Letters were last week received from Tabriz up to the 14th ult., which state that intelligence had reached that place of the Sheik's arrival at Meshid with his army, and that Col. Sheil and Dr. Aback had been despatched by Mr. M'Neill to meet him in that city. Mr. M'Neill was then himself at Tehran expecting the Shah. Commerce had already begun to revive in consequence of the fortunate turn events had taken. Reports had reached here a short time since of the Kurds being again in a state of rebellion, and of their having defeated and cut to pieces part of the army of Hafous Pacha. These reports are now confirmed by a gentleman lately arrived from Kourdistan, who states that four regi ments of the Turkish army have been entirely destroyed. The Turkish fleet is not yet arrived, and it is now thought that some of the vessel.; will remain out all the winter in company with ours.—Morning Chronicle. CIRCASSIA. CONSTANTINOPLE, Nov. 17.—Upwards of twenty ves sels engaged in the trade between Circassia and Turkey arrived during the last four weeks at Sinope and Samsoom, and an equal number have taken their departure with return cargoes for the coast of Abasia. The statemer.ts made to me by the numerous eye-witnesses I have had the opportunity of speaking to since their arrival here, fully confirm the accounts of the disasters the Russian fleet en countered in the memorable storm of June the 11th, as well as of the signal defeat of General Sass's division on the banks of the Shakwasher. According to the most mode rote computation, the number of vessels forming part of the Russian blockading squadron that were thrown upon the coast, amounts to 26. As the large proportion of these were cutters and schooners, the very vessels which gave most annoyance to the Circassian traders, their destruction is looked upon by them as far more important than that of an equal number of men-of-war. The quantity of ammunition and military stores the Circassians recovered from the wrecks is sufficent to enable them to carry on the warfare during several campaigns. The best proof of the abundance of these materials in Circassia is, that merchants from that country, who hitherto looked on those articles as the most profitable speculation, have this year entirely declined purchasing either lead or powder. In compensation for this immense sacrifice of property and lives of her subjects, Russia has ob tained but a miserable return in the erection of additional mud forts at Sotsha, Toaps, Shapsikry, and latterly at Soud jouk-kaleh—possessions which have as little contributed to the attainment of the two foremost objects of her ambition, the interruption of communications, and the acknowledg ment of her sovereignty by the natives, as the rest of the for tified posts her troops occupied previously along the coast. The garrisons of these forts are so closely besieged by the Circassians, as to be under the necessity of receiving their supplies, even that of wood, from the ports of the Crimea. Towards the beginning of July the Russians thought proper to set their unfortunate colonists, men and women, pro tected by three columns of infantry and four field-pieces, to cut grass on the open plains near the Kuban. Hahood okoo, having got word of what they were about, came down with 500 horsemen overnight, and so placed them as not to be seen by the Muscovites, who were no sooner set to work in the morning than the Circassians rushed in among them, and in spite of the artillery and infantry, bore off upwards of 30 of the colonists and fourscore men they had brought to remove the hay. Two men wounded, and a dozen or two of horses killed, was all the loss of the Circassians. An envoy from Daghestan, arrived in Circassia, brought intelligence of that country being up in arms, and of the insurrection having extended to Georgia. The great na tional was, at the mome n t o f t h e a b ove - men ti one d individual's oat h departure from Circassia, being taken by the populations on the other side of the mountains behind So kumkoleh. _ But one of the most hopeful features of affairs is the spirit of unanimity which has been gaining ground for some time past along tho whole coast as far as Gagrah. Between the Abasians and Cirea;..sians, who speak different languages, existed hitherto coldness and aversion—the lees of old feuds and wars ; but now the warmcst cordiality and intimacy unites both nations.—Times. SMYRNA. The Gazette de Sm . yrne, of November 17, coniaies the Following : An express which arrived today from Samos brings an account that some pirates had, on the coast of that island l, seized an Ottoman schooner, which, after plundering, they; sunk. All the crew perished with the exception of one sailor, who contrived to land at Patmos, from whence he• went to Samos, and made his complaint to the authorities of thi s i s l an d. Th e G overnor of Samos after the infor mation he received, and acting with his wonted . zeal Ind intelli gence , succee d e d i n arresting two o f t h e pirates. PSI third individual belonging to the band was seized at Echelle• Nouvelle. We have besides learnt that two other pirates were at Patmos, where there has been discovered much.. merchandise, such as wax, carpets, &c. The isle to of Samos h as t ene d t o d es patch a vessel to this to seize, if possible, these two men, before they were able to fave themselves. PLANTING OF TREES.—The late Duke of Athol planted in the last year of his life 6,500 acres of mount a i n ground solely with larch trees, which, in the course of seventy-two years will be a forest of timber fit f or th e the largest class of ships in the navy. It will have been thinned out to about 400 trees per acre. Each tree will contain at least fifty cubic feet, or one load, of timber, which, at the low price of one shilling the cubic foot (only one-half of its present value), will give 1,0001. per acre, or in all a sum of six millions five hundred thousand potthat sterling? Besides this, there will have been a return at 71. per acre from thinnings, after deducting all expenses, including the original outlay of planting. Farther still, the land on which the larch is planted is not worth 9d. or Is, an acre ; but after the thinnings of the first fifty years the larch will make it worth at least 10s. per acre by the im provement of the pasturage, on which cattle can be kept, summer and winter.—Segsmax.
